Great Granny Goes Tandem Hang Gliding (100 Years Old)
Loading...
Uploaded by stage809 on Aug 23, 2009
My 100 year old great grandmother goes hang gliding at Wallaby Ranch. Malcolm Jones, the owner of Wallaby, was her tandem pilot, and did a great job. The video was shot and edited by the folks at Wallaby. Some of the wide shots are from their stock, but all of the close-ups are of Great Granny and Malcolm. I also tacked on some of the pictures my dad took that day. Backstory: a bunch of us had gone the weekend before for my mother's birthday, so we knew how gentle the tandem flights were and that the people at Wallaby are great. When Great Granny (who turned 100 in July) saw the pictures and heard about it, she said that she thought she'd like to do it.

What a fabulous birthday experience. Granny is so mellow. :) (and I love Malcolm Jones for having just the right touch to make this a super positive experience).
